"They know how to pronounce my name!" -- rockstar reception tonight for Kamala Harris on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert

"What upsets me so is the idea that any politician would play political games with these folks" -- Kamala Harris to Stephen Colbert on Helene aftermath

"There's a lot of catching up to do. My opponent, the former president, has been running since 2020" -- Kamala Harris

Kamala Harris on what she was thinking during the debate: "It's family TV, right? It starts with a W, here's a letter in between, and then the last letter is F."

Harris: "Somebody asked me recently what's the last big decision I made that was a gut decision ... ultimately I chose and asked Tim Walz, because my gut told me that he will be what I think we want in our country ... he's the kind of people I grew up with."

Harris on Trump to Colbert: "He has said he wants to be a dictator on day one if he were elected again. He gets played by these guys ... Trump secretly sent covid test kids to Putin for his personal use. I ask everyone who is watching: Do you remember what those days were like?"

COLBERT: "Would you like to have a beer with me?"

HARRIS: "Cheers. The champagne of beers."

Colbert's last question to Harris: I want to ask you a question that Speaker Johnson recently called a gotcha, and it's a question that a lot of Republican are avoiding: Did Trump lose the election?

I'm going to put together a thread covering Kamala Harris's Univision town hall. Follow along for clips and commentary.

The first q Harris fields is about the hurricane response. She says"there has been a lot of mis & disinformation about what we have been doing over the last two weeks and what we are gonna do going forward. And I have to stress that this is not a time for people to play politics"

Harris takes a tearful question from a woman whose mother recently died in part because she was an undocumented immigrant and as a result couldn't get the healthcare she needed. She responds with empathy and by explaining her immigration plan in detail.

Trump's rally music keeps getting weirder. They're now playing a dirge that sounds like the Undertaker's theme just before Trump comes out on stage.
